And how they're searching for that new messiah
It's their greatest passion
To set 'em up and knock 'em down
Put them on a pedestal Idolatry
Wear the ring you're married
It's all yours to their envy
Because you hold a higher key of senses
And they are drawn like magnets
To a genius It's confirmed
Chorus:
Set 'em up and knock 'em down
Your taste is so accountable
This is no great loss
And sharing never was a choice
It's burning on your cross
It gives you credit and a voice
Here to relay your beautiful ideals vicariously through them
And when he died too many were sympathetic
And they are all pathetic
So you dethrone your king without listening
And Jesus Christ is realized
As he one will come
The wait is short
Your search is brief
You find another faith
Another clark rent
Another superman
Flashing in the pan
Repeat chorus
And now you're searching for a new messiah
It's your greatest passion
It's the latest fashion
